The podcast episode discusses promoting positive behavior and managing challenging behavior. The hosts and guests explain the EYFS framework and its importance in supporting children's development. They also provide strategies for promoting positive behavior, such as structured play and acknowledging emotional needs. The guests offer advice to parents dealing with challenging behavior, including staying positive, understanding the reasons behind the behavior, and creating distractions. The episode concludes by emphasizing the importance of consistency and providing support for children's behavior. Hello and welcome to our podcast Let's Talk About It. I'm joined with my co-host Libby and three special guests, Lauren, Chloe and Elise. In today's episode we will be discussing the differences with promoting positive behaviour and how to manage challenging behaviour. We'll be looking into how the EYFS framework describes positive behaviour and what it consists of. To guide us with this information we have three guests involved in the child development sector. First we have Lauren. Lauren, would you like to give us a summary of your role within this sector? Hi, I am Lauren and I am a social worker. Today I will be discussing some points on different strategies which could be effective in promoting a child's behaviour and how I help children who have grown up in difficult social situations. Next we have Chloe. Chloe, could you tell us a bit about what you do? Hi, I'm Chloe and I'm a youth worker. My job means I help children with their social and emotional development in an informal setting. I also provide counselling for young people and help to keep children safe whilst they are in care. Thanks Chloe. And last but not least we have Elise. Can you explain a bit about what you do as well please? Hi, I'm Elise and I'm a child behaviour support worker. My job will consist of helping children with behavioural issues and providing them with a clear understanding of ways I can help them and guide them to start healthy habits in their day to day life and improve their later life. For the first half of this podcast we are going to be discussing promoting positive behaviour. Me and Libby are going to be going into more detail about the EYFS which is a framework put in place by the UK government which sets up the standards that schools and childcare providers must meet for the learning, development and care for children from 0 to 5 years. There are two parts to the EYFS framework. A statutory framework for childminders groups and school based providers. Both frameworks are designed to set standards in all settings that practitioners must follow to ensure the safety of children and to ensure that their development is supported to the highest standards. Children need certain knowledge and skills before they start school and the EYFS supports children's needs to help them develop efficiently. The EYFS framework promotes positive behaviour as childminders and staff observe children's behaviour, this meaning that they note down children's behaviour and their interactions to see if there are any changes that can be made to improve and expand on their development and behaviours. There have recently been changes made to the EYFS framework as it is now split into two groups. Firstly one for childminders and secondly one for groups and school based providers. These changes have been made to ensure that providers can operate successfully so that practitioners can focus on providing children with high quality care, early education and practitioners also can progress their careers. I'm now going to pass over to Lauren who is going to go into more detail on how play is a major factor in children's behaviour and development. Here are some good points on different strategies for children's positive behaviour. When the child makes use of activities they are doing, ensuring that child's play is structured and encouraged to use explorative play. This develops the child's reasoning and problem solving. Reasoning the child's emotional needs and acknowledging them by articulating them to aid the child's emotional intelligence. Behaviour can play a big part in a child's early years setting and your engagement of your role. While positive behaviour helps children to have better outcomes in their lives and improve their wellbeing. So now in this section of the podcast parents have been sending in some questions they would like you all to help them with. These questions are how to support social and emotional development within the household. To start we have Julie who is a mum to a 14 year old boy. She would like some help with how to support him as at the minute he's been acting out towards her and she's starting to think that he's never going to stop. So Chloe can you help her out at all? Yeah so to me it sounds like he's just going through a stage in his life when he's retaliating towards you because you're the only person there for him to do so towards. I think you need to continue being positive towards him and eventually he will come to terms with how he's behaving. Unfortunately he is at the stage of his life where he wants to be more independent with how he lives but also he will want you there for some of it. So keep doing what you're doing as eventually he will grow out of it and please know that you're not on your own. Every parent listening in will be agreeing with me as they have all probably been through this as well. Thanks Chloe. Next we have Tim. He is a father to a 12 year old girl who has just started high school and is having issues making friends. Leading her to lash out at home and taking all her anger out on him resulting in massive arguments and Tim grounding her. So Elise can you suggest strategies to help him in this situation? Yes of course. I can suggest positive strategies to help him and guide him to start including healthy behaviour habits in their everyday lives. Asking for help and looking for advice is a great first step into making positive changes. Recognising the issues and negative behaviour is a huge benefit in helping his daughter out as they can begin to make changes to her situation resulting in behaviour changes. However punishing her for acting out will make the situation worse and build up more negative emotions leading her to become more aggressive towards her. To conclude this section of the podcast we now have Sarah who is a mum to an 8 year old girl who struggles to focus on the tasks she has been given. She finds it hard to keep up with other children in her class and therefore can get quite upset and annoyed with herself when things don't go right. Sarah is getting worried about her child falling behind and wants some advice. So Lauren would you be able to help Sarah and please offer some advice? Of course I can try and help you out Sarah. I think an effortless way to keep your child focused and for her to be on top of her work would be to keep this rule simple and easy to follow for her to be able to fully understand. As well as this using positive behaviour when she is at home would also go a long way as this would help to maintain a positive attitude towards things. An example of this would be to use do instead of don't whenever possible as this would help to guide her into more positive thinking. You could also make sure to keep sentences short and simple so they are not over complicated for her. I hope this helps a little bit and if you need any more advice I am always open to any more questions. For our second half of this podcast we are going to discuss different strategies on managing behaviour. I know Lauren has a lot of knowledge on this part of child development so I am going to pass over to her. I have made a list of some good key points to manage a child's challenging behaviour and how these strategies may promote the child's positive behaviour. First off I think as a child carer you should always try to understand why the child you are looking after or caring for is acting this way and if you recognise any signs of the child playing up you may be able to prevent any behavioural outbursts. I agree with everything Lauren has just said as the most important part of being a carer is to make sure the child's best interests are always considered and every decision made. As a carer it is so significant to always stay positive when around the child and to reward any positive behaviour they may display so that the child knows what is right and what is wrong. When a child displays good behaviour I offer them rewards such as praise or cuddle to show them that what they have done is something good. This will ensure that they feel recognised and secure in their relationship with their carer. Another key point I would like to focus on is some carers find that creating a distraction can help the child's energy focus elsewhere and prevent them from having any challenging behaviour. Your child may start to act up and display challenging behaviour for attention. Yes, everything Lauren just said I totally agree with. Carers creating distractions for children is very important because it really does help them unwind and not become overwhelmed. This then helps the child have all their needs met resulting in them to behave positively not negatively. Managing your child's behaviour can be difficult but there are ways to handle challenging behaviour. Children often display difficult behaviours for many different reasons. They can be tired, hungry, frustrated and sometimes even show their anger-free boredom. I feel like it is important that we always show consistency with children. It can be difficult but the main thing is to stay calm and not overreact as some children will feed off an adult's reaction to their behaviour. There are many varied factors that can affect your child's behaviour such as welcoming a new baby, moving house. If you, the parent or caregiver is having a challenging time and your mood change is noticeable to the child and if your child is wanting more attention. Finally to end this episode of our podcast we have discussed the differences that have been made to the EYFS system and by promoting positive behaviour can help your child grow with confidence throughout their life. We have looked over and discussed different points that promote a child's positive behaviour and examined strategies that could be effective for your child. As well as this we have tried to give our viewers the best advice that we can think of regarding the phoning earlier on. Myself, Lauren and Elisa are always open to discussing any points further if anyone has any other queries. We have also discussed many different strategies and listed some key points on how to manage a child's challenging behaviour. We hope we have been able to answer all of your questions to everyone listening at home and help you understand managing and promoting positive behaviour a little bit better. Thank you everyone for listening and goodbye from all of us. Bye!
